That's funny Mikey, I talked to the sales guy on the wiring too. He is the guy in the 12th picture. He said that Sailfish is "paying attention" to the wiring. I pointed out to him that the speaker wires that are hooked up to the Wet Sound amplifiers are not marine grade, and that they will corrode to a powder in a year down here in Miami in a salt environment. His answer was, that this is a demo boat and that they would not do that on a production boat. I also told him that the wiring behind the switch panel is a hot mess. It looks like they just zip tied wires together. That's the same guy i was talking to. He was a nice guy and seemed knowledgeable and proud of the brand. I talked to him for a while last year also. I didn't really look at the wiring on other comparable brands (cobia, sea hunt, sportsman...), i wounder if they are also using a harness or if they have better wiring?

A little off topic, but when you get to 4,5,6 motors, how do they handle the prop rotations?

And I thought I had arrived when I was able to swing a used 2660...

I spent all day Sunday with my friend who is considering a Sea Hunter, HCB, and Scout; 37 to 38 foot boats. The wiring on the HCB and Scout are so impeccable, it looks like a piece of art. Did not have time to look at the wiring on the Sea Hunters.

I would take a Sea Hunter all day, everyday and twice on Sunday over a Scout. Heck, I would take the 36 SF over a Scout, neat wiring or not.

Our local boat show was this weekend and the only Sailfish was a 241. Single 300 merc. Boat show special pricing was $90,000.
